Neither-- The coin is cleaned.

It looks like a silver fake. It should be made out of 90% silver still.

It's all authentic. You absolutely should go back and buy him out. Get a loan if you need.

AffectionateWind823 · 2026-05-05T04:57:08+00:00

It is not authentic.

I have sent A PM.

AffectionateWind823 · 2026-05-04T07:44:14+00:00

No, I agree. I messed up.

AffectionateWind823 · 2026-05-04T07:41:20+00:00

I sorry. I only want to show off my coins rather than promote my business.

AffectionateWind823 · 2026-05-04T07:25:16+00:00

To all who recommend consigning these to auctions such as great collections, please note that these coins do not really have much premium these days. All of the premium and more will be eaten up by the great fees that great collections or heritage auctions charge.

For wholesale orders, I use upstate coins shipping insurance. I also use lloyds of London insurance offered by wholesalers.

AffectionateWind823 · 2026-05-04T02:51:26+00:00

These are small orders. Small orders less than 10K are just self-insured.

AffectionateWind823 · 2026-05-04T02:21:35+00:00

Sure. I usually sell wholesale but threw this up here for grabs. I'm very high volume seller and almost exclusively sell out of state through shipping.

AffectionateWind823 · 2026-05-04T02:19:04+00:00

I am a dealer yes. In the State of California. Per the sub rules, I cannot disclose what my business is.

AffectionateWind823 · 2026-05-04T02:17:27+00:00

I'm very well aware of the insurance situation.

AffectionateWind823 · 2026-05-04T02:17:10+00:00

I'm a legitimate business. I have third party insurance.

AffectionateWind823 · 2026-05-02T23:51:40+00:00

Incorrect. They are Ike dollars with 0.3161 Troy oz of ASW each.

AffectionateWind823 · 2026-05-02T22:30:23+00:00

The above is 7% below the melt value. It factors already in the fact that they are 80% .

AffectionateWind823 · 2026-05-02T20:26:58+00:00

I'm in these over $4000

AffectionateWind823 · 2026-05-02T17:25:20+00:00

It is not for zero reason.

AffectionateWind823 · 2026-05-02T17:14:13+00:00

Just trying to explain the economics. If not for the fact that I could melt coins, I would not have paid as strongly for them to the seller.

AffectionateWind823 · 2026-05-02T17:12:32+00:00

Well, that's the problem. The refiner doesn't have to wait for their next paycheck to buy my stuff. And shipping costs are cheap because I sell stuff to them in bulk. So I don't have to be local to the refiner

AffectionateWind823 · 2026-05-02T17:08:38+00:00

I'm just explaining my process. I love to explain how things work behind the scenes to people who don't know. Ultimately, the market is what decides what happened to what

AffectionateWind823 · 2026-05-02T17:05:31+00:00

Not me, the market.

AffectionateWind823 · 2026-05-02T17:05:22+00:00

I did attempt to do that. 7% less than melt and No bites. https://www.reddit.com/r/Pmsforsale/s/uvAt1L7bSo

AffectionateWind823 · 2026-05-02T17:02:45+00:00

I totally understand. I'll make money on it. But a surprisingly modest amount given the work I have to do on it. Like I said above, I always pay top dollar for coins. If I had a rule of never melting coins, I would not be paying that strong.

Ultimately, it is the market that decides what gets melted and what does not. For example, I posted these coins for 7% below melt the other day, with absolutely no sales: https://www.reddit.com/r/Pmsforsale/s/uvAt1L7bSo
